Track and trace metal supply with geotraceability
Metals are essential elements of our daily life. Think of electric vehicles (EVs) for a second. You probably know that an EV is quite different from a conventional combustion car in terms of material use. Studies have shown that EVs use much more and wider range of metals compared to gas-powered cars because of their […]
Rethinking Rare Earth Recycling through Extrusion 3D Printing
Extrusion-based 3D printing is no longer just a rapid prototyping tool. Today, it is evolving into a viable method for producing end-use industrial parts—driven by community innovation, improved hardware/software ecosystems, and advanced materials. This progress is opening new doors for circular manufacturing—particularly in Europe’s efforts to secure access to critical raw materials. REMHub: Advancing REE […]
REMHub contributes to the development of processes to valorize the Eurallumina red muds
The project REMHub, funded under the Horizon EU call HORIZON-CL4-2024-RESILIENCE-01-08, aims to create a cutting-edge innovation hub propelling EU excellence in the supply of Rare Earth Elements (REEs) and the manufacture of permanent magnets. The extraction of valuable elements from industrial side streams is a key activity, along with the prospection for primary sources. Within […]
REMHub Engages high school students in circular economy and critical raw materials awareness
On January 15–16, 2025, Professor Cinzia Cristiani from the Polytechnic of Milan and Dr. Sergio Molina Ramirez (Polytechnic of Milan & University of Genoa) met with approximately 50 students from ”G. Galilei” High School in Voghera, Italy. This event was organized at the invitation of three teachers, Alessandra Casati, Paola Guado and Dimma Molinari, to raise awareness about the circular […]
REMHub Kickoff: Enabling Rare Earth and permanent magnets resilience in Europe – RemHub Project
